JoJo Siwa engaged talk got more concrete at the 12th Annual Industry Dance Awards. She said she and Chris Hughes independently chose the same blue emerald-shaped engagement ring design, a detail that turns a hypothetical proposal into a very specific shared reference point.

Siwa said she had already searched for ring designs and saved a Google image of her dream ring. She told the audience, "I've always said that one day, if he proposes, I figured he'd ask my mom what kind of ring I would want, and I told my mom, I said, 'Whenever he asks you, [tell him] I want him to design it completely. I want it to be completely his design.'"
Then she changed the test. Over dinner one random night, Siwa asked Hughes what he thought her dream ring would be, and they showed each other their choices on the count of three. "And we flipped it. And we were holding the same photo from Google! … It was like a blue emerald shape," she said.

That match matters because it gives the couple a rare, concrete overlap in how they picture a proposal. Siwa wants Hughes to design the ring completely himself, yet she had already saved the same image he had picked, which makes the shared choice feel less like coincidence and more like an accidental blueprint.
JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes first met in April of 2025 on season 24 of Celebrity Big Brother UK, then officially confirmed they were together in June of 2025. Hughes marked their first anniversary with three photos and the line, "One year ago today, I discovered your existence," while Siwa replied, "1 beautiful perfect year [white heart emoji] Feels like yesterday and 10 years ago all at the same time. Forever grateful to that house for so many reasons, but there is definitely one special reason."

Siwa said they are about to reach their year and a half anniversary, calling the timeline "wild" and saying, "It feels like last week." For now, that is the most useful takeaway for readers tracking the relationship: the ring conversation is no longer abstract, but whether Hughes will actually propose and turn the matching blue emerald shape into a real ring is still the next step in the story.
